Kessel drops to #4..

Post by **netwolf** » Tue Apr 04, 2006 9:57 pm

According to a group called International Scouting Service (they're an independent scouting service - I had not heard of them before), Kessel is #4 behind Erik Johnson, Jonathan Toews, and Jordan Staal.

Bob McKenzie says of the 5 scouts surveyed by TSN, one had Kessel #1, another had him at #2 behind Johnson, and two had him at #3 behind Johnson and Toews.

I've been pulling for Johnson for months now... if only the Blues and the lottery cooperate.

I wont be surprised if Staal hits #2 before long.

He's already my #2. I think the kid has serious 'upside potential'

Well the blues may be looking at Johnson to replace pronger and jackman has been hurt all year so maybe they want some additional youth on the blue line. So either way we are looking at getting a pretty solid player unless other teams start tanking and we go on a tear.

START tanking?? The Blues haven't won in their last ten games.
